why gen z could be the revival generation
A powerful and unexpected movement has been taking place among young people. Bible sales are on the rise, young men are returning to church, and Gen Z is showing a renewed interest in stable homes and traditional values.

Suffering and waiting are part of the Christian life. Recently a friend and I have been commiserating over not having what we’ve been praying for, for so long. It’s been a long road of waiting and heartache. Sometimes, you just wonder: Why? Why am I waiting, O Lord? What lesson am I not understanding? Why must more heartache come? How much longer will I feel this way?

"What Would Jesus Do?" has become a cliché among many Christians, yet I believe it is the most critical question we should be asking when confronting today’s cultural issues. From tackling abortion and gender dysphoria to rising divorce rates, sex trafficking, and the challenges of ungodly leadership, now more than ever we need direction on how to bring transformation to these issues.
self-worth: embracing our identity in god
We live in a “treat yo self” culture (Parks and Recreation, anyone?). Thousands of TikToks and Instagram reels explain what “self-love” and “self-care” should look like as well as an increasing view in life and relationships that whatever we want should surpass the feelings of others. That friend no longer serves you? Quit being friends with them. You don’t “feel” in love with your spouse anymore? Get a divorce and find someone new.
the hope revolution
Our generation is more anxious than any other – we feel the weight of the world on our shoulders. Pessimism is now equated with realism.
What if we decided, however, to go against the grain and join the Hope Revolution?
Hope is a word that often seems wishy-washy. In our culture it is synonymous with the idea of wishing for something to happen, which can seem very dangerous. We are told too often, “Don’t get your hopes up!”
And yet, as young people, we are created for the exact opposite - we are zealous, innovative, and won’t take no for an answer! This is where what I like to call “The Hope Revolution’”comes in!
next-generation participation critical in America’s elections
It is increasingly evident that the next generation must actively shape the political landscape and get involved — as soon as possible. Engaging Christian young people in our governmental process is not just wisdom; it is a moral imperative grounded in our faith. We must pass on what we know to those who follow us.
1630: engaging the next generation of leaders
Christian young adults across the country see what’s happening today in our nation and feel many things - apathy, anxiety, fear. Many more see where our culture is heading and have a desire to make an impact, but don’t know where to start. Our nation is increasingly deviating from Biblical values and social conservative views are seen as “outdated.” What is our purpose in life? Are young people called to make a difference? How do we make an impact in our nation?
